At REDD+ Matavén, we recognize the ancestral wisdom of indigenous peoples as guardians of the forest. Their deep connection to the land is crucial for protecting Matavén’s valuable natural resources, and that’s why we are committed to empowering them to continue fulfilling this vital role.
Our dedication to environmental preservation goes hand in hand with supporting the health and well-being of these communities. The renovation of the Sarrapia health post is a key step in ensuring that the indigenous peoples of Matavén have access to medical care without needing to travel long distances to cities like Cumaribo or Inírida.
The REDD+ Matavén Project drives development that respects and values the culture and needs of indigenous peoples. We are building a legacy where the health of people and the health of the planet go hand in hand, creating a lasting impact in Matavén and beyond.
